Dunhuang Assembled Container House

Dunhuang assembled container houses are prefabricated buildings formed by using steel container units as basic modules through industrial prefabrication and modular combination. They have the characteristics of short construction periods, controllable costs, relocatability and reusability, and strong land adaptability. The following is an introduction from multiple aspects:

Structure and Materials

• Usually, light-steel structure container units are adopted, based on hot-dip galvanized steel frames, which are structurally stable and have good earthquake and wind resistance. Some products can meet the standards of withstanding magnitude-8 earthquakes and wind pressures of up to grade 12. The outer shell materials are diverse. For container units with aviation aluminum outer shells, the outer layer is covered with aviation-grade aluminum alloy sheets with fluorocarbon spraying, providing stronger weather resistance and a more high-end texture.

Functional Uses

• Residential type: It includes space capsule homestays, travel pods, hotel rooms, etc. The interiors are finely decorated according to hotel standards, equipped with independent bathrooms and smart home systems, focusing on travel comfort.
• Commercial type: It includes mobile food stalls, mobile cabins, scenic spot sales kiosks, etc., emphasizing functional zoning and quick meal preparation or business flow design, suitable for commercial districts, scenic spots, and other scenarios.
• Public supporting type: Such as mobile toilets, sentry boxes, temporary reception centers, etc., highlighting durability and rapid deployment capabilities, which can meet the needs of temporary offices and events.

Construction Process

• Industrial prefabrication and modular combination are the core construction methods. Through prefabrication in factories, the entire house is assembled and delivered without the need for civil engineering construction permits. It can start operating as soon as it is installed on site, greatly shortening the construction period and ensuring quality control.

Application Scenarios

• In the Dunhuang area, assembled container houses can be used on construction sites to provide temporary accommodation and office spaces for workers. They can also be used for disaster relief to quickly set up safe and comfortable living spaces. In addition, they can serve as temporary shops, coffee shops, food stalls, etc., to meet commercial activity needs. They also have broad application prospects in scenic spot supporting facilities and homestay campsites.
